International day of Autism Awareness!!!
As some of you know My elder son Ricardo is in the autism spectrum! He is or have Asperger Syndrome
Today is the day for me to tell you "Hey, one kid between 92-100 will born with Autism!!
So someone near you is autistic!
Autism is not equal to retarded or stupid, most of the autistic children have normal or very high IQ, and they can go to school and universities.
But they need our help, because they don't understand our rules, our double speech, sarcasm, lies or even our corporeal cues. The world is an strange place were strange people have strange rules, that they don't understand so they need to learn in order to live with us.
If a kid with autism is diagnosed early in life He/She will recognize how to live with you when He/She will be an adult and everything will be more easy. If Not and we live in denial, that kid could develop psychiatric problems as an adult, like obsessive compulsive disorders, severe depression, agoraphobic, or food disorders or others . This will be not because they are autistic, but because they are humans and living year after year of being bullied, without understand why you say this and mean other different thing, why are you angry or sad, living without love and comprehension make this to you!
I'm proud and happy mom of Ricardo even if sometimes we don't understand each other and we are streesed, but we are learning and i hope he could live as an adult in a place who really live to "Infinite diversity in infinite combinations!"
So please take the time to watch this little vid with more info (the vid, is not new, so it said 1 of each 150 children is autistic, but today numbers says, 1 each 92 is)
